THE POsTOFFICE.
ONE Reason Why n Democrat IL
Not Appointed.


This postotfice business Is ASSUMING q
magnitude that few thought it would
reach. Reference is not made to the
large receipts of the office, but to the
interest manifested as to who will be
the new Postmaster. Since the tele.
graph announced that some good, hard
working Democrat, not yet mentioned,
would be appointed these same Demo-
Gratis have been coming to the surface
with startling rapidity, and on the street
you can hear the name of almost every
Democrat in town mentioned In connec-
ton with the office, except Sid. Lacey's.
Yesterday it was announced in all seri
business that the race is now between j.
FL. Brewer, Ii. M. Mitchell, under
Sheriff, and j. Downey Harvey. Other
names are also banded about in the
most reckless manner. No doubt the
gentlemen will be somewhat astonished
to know that they have even been men.
toned in connection with the office. but
it is fact, nevertheless. As to Barrett

considered in the lead, they will now
have to take a back seat and
with envious eyes watch the
struggles of their more successful
rivals. In all seriousness the appoint
ment OF postmaster will have to be |
made within two weeks, in order that |
the transfer OF the Office can be made by
the LIST of July-it takes sometime for
the transmission of papers between this /
city and Washington. One view of the /
question which is taken by a number of
people is that Green will bold his own
in spite of all Democratic opposition,
md will be the Postmaster of Los An.
geles until after the next election. The |.
people who entertain this idea put it on
he ground that so long as il is impossi.
Die for Sidney Lacey to be appointed
Hearst will refuse to recommend an.
'ther man, and thus Cleveland will
ather bear the ills he has than fly to
hose he knows not of. Lacey has
